Chapter Six: A Surprise around every corner.
Two weeks after Ichigo's coronation as head of the Shiba Clan.
Yoruichi POV
"Yoruichi!" Soifon called out "Were are you going?"
"Oh just for a walk to stretch my legs, wanna come?" she asked.
"Sure." Soifon replied.
As Soifon and Yoruichi walked out of the Senkaimon from the Noble Plain and into the Rukon District Soifon couldn't help but ask her former mentor's advice.
"Yoruichi do you ever wonder what life would be like for us if we never met Ichigo?" she asked.
"Everyday." she replied.
"And." Soifon said.
"And What." Yoruichi said staring at Soifon with questioning eyes.
Soifon just glared at her as if to say "answer the fucking question already".
"Oh! Well without Ichigo our lives would be boring and meaningless. But Ichigo did do something that I will always be grateful for, he helped reunite me with my dear sweet little bee whom I think of as a little sister." Yoruichi said causing Soifon to blush.
Little did either of the ladies realize that they were being watched by members of the stealth force.
Just then the stealth force members watching them appeared in front of them. "We have come on behalf of the Omaeda Clan to bring Captain Soifon back for her arranged marriage to Lieutenant Omaeda." One of the men said.
"What arranged marriage? As far as I know I have one Fiance and it isn't Omaeda!" Soifon shouted.
"That's Right both she and I are arranged to the head of the Shiba Clan Ichigo Kurosaki Shiba." Yoruichi said Causing most of the stealth force members to back off except for one who promptly put a blade to Yoruichi's throat.
"You will come with us Captain Soifon or Yoruichi will die right here." The man said.
Soifon then drew her blade, looked at Yoruichi who nodded to her and said, "You just made the biggest mistake of your very short lives".
Soifon flashed around all the men present and killed them all in an instant, only sparing the man who held her big sister hostage. Soifon looked at the man and said "I'll give you one chance and only one. What is the name of the fool that sent you here?"
The way she looked at him, he looked as if he was going to piss his pants. He finally said "It was Lieutenant Omaeda and the elders of the Fon clan.
Shocked by what she just learned she asked "Was my father in on this to?"
"No Ma'am he has been imprisoned in the maggot's nest." the scared stealth force man said.
"Thank you that's all I needed to hear." she said. In a move that the untrained eye would believe was choreographed Soifon flashed behind him and plunged her blade into his heart from behind and at the same time Yoruichi ducked underneath the blade turned his wrist and elbow 40 degrees and plunged the mans own blade through the center of his chest just to make sure he was dead.
"Yoruichi contact your father let him know whats happened and ask him to convene a meeting of the nobility and get them to revoke the status of the Omaeda clan also contact Ichigo and let him know what has happened. I am going to contact the head captain and ask him to mobilize squads 1,2,4 and 6 to surround the Fon and Omaeda clan estates and keep them from escaping while I go after my father." Soifon said.
"Alright I'll do it but be careful you what Omaeda family is capable of when pushed to far." Yoruichi said.
Soifon nodded and headed towards the Maggot's Nest to get her father out of prison. As she got there she suppressed her energy to almost nothing, so low that only the most skilled soul reapers could detect it. She proceeded to knock out the guards and seal her zanpaktou in a pocket dimension before heading inside, once inside she began the search for her father and she found him under guard by her favorite punching bag, her lieutenant she couldn't help the malicious grin one her face at that moment she knew she would enjoy this.
"Captain Soifon come on out I know you're there." Omaeda said. "How did you know?" she asked.
"That's easy, the perfume you wear is unmistakable." he said.
"Why don't you just return to the manor and get ready for our wedding like a good girl?" Omaeda said
"The reason is quite simple Omaeda, because I hate you. I always have and your actions today are just further justification. I will not marry a man who cares only for himself, and kidnaps others just to get his way. You're just a petulant child who got everything he ever wanted and never had to work hard for anything. You disgust me!" she exclaimed.
"I knew you would say t….." just then the rest of his reply as they heard clapping
CLAP! CLAP! CLAP!
"I knew you had balls for brains Omaeda but I didn't think it was quite this bad. Now that I think about it a house fly has a higher IQ than you. You really must be stupid if you thought you could take one of my fiances from me with out me fighting for her." Ichigo said as he came walking in with the head captain and the captain of squad 12, soifon ran over to her fiance and felt herself being wrapped in his strong caring arms. "Ichigo is my one and only fiance Omaeda and the only one I will ever let touch me like this." she said as she could see her lieutenant's eye's filling with hatred, anger, and rage.
Ichigo drew his blade and said "Either you release Mr. Fon or I'm gonna start carving" as he said this his eyes turned blue and his spiritual pressure began to rise rapidly. Omaeda released his prisoner and started begging Ichigo for mercy and forgiveness which fell on deaf ears that is until Soifon kicked the fat lazy prick in the nuts several times and said "Now try having kids bastard!" "Soifon darling I think you probably turned his jewels to mush after the third kick, so why eight times?" he asked. "I wanted to make sure he got the point." she said with an evil grin.
"By the Way Ichigo." The head captain called out. "Yes." Ichigo replied.
"There is a Captain's Meeting in the morning and you are expected to attend, ask Soifon or Retsu about it they have the details. I wish I could tell you myself but I have somewhere I need to be." The head captain said.
"Kurosuchi what are you doing here?" Soifon said. "I came with the head captain." he said.
"Well now that your business is done you can leave, you shouldn't be here in the first place." Soifon said.
"I will go anywhere I damn well please I don't need your permission captain." Kurosuchi spat venomously. Just then Soifon flashed over and grabbed Kurosuchi by the throat and said "this is the maggots nest and it is controlled by the Shihion Clan, the Fon Clan and very soon by Shiba Clan once I get married and all visitors must have our permission to come here or anywhere else controlled by the aforementioned clans and you would do well to remember that and your place captain. You should also remember that as an assassin I know over 50 different ways of killing you without leaving a mark." Soifon said as her eyes became dark and filled with killing intent and her reiatsu began to rise. She dragged Kurosuchi and Omaeda out by there throats and dumped them each at squad 12 and squad 4 respectively.
That Evening at Shiba Manor
Ichigo was lying in bed with his ladies after dinner when he turned to Soifon and asked. "Soifon the head captain said something about a meeting I'd need to attend in the morning."
"Yes just some questions about you and I would imagine what they saw in your inner world" she replied.
"What time does it start?" he asked.
"At 8 am sharp, don't worry one of us will wake you up and then we can all go together." she replied.
"By the way Soifon, what did you do to the Fon Clan elders?" Ichigo asked with an evil grin.
"Ask Yoruichi by the time I got there it was all over with and she had them cowering in the corner." she replied
"Well Yoruichi." Ichigo said.
"All I said was that Soifon already had a fiance whom she dearly loved and if those old fools kept sticking there nose where it didn't belong the consequences wouldn't be an enjoyable experience for them." Yoruichi said with a grin that scared Ichigo, not mention could make an ordinary man crap his pants
"Ichigo I've got a surprise for you not to mention mom, dad and big sis." Orihime said. "Okay what is it?" Ichigo asked. "I'll tell you at breakfast in the morning." Orihime said.
Flashback Two Weeks Ago
Orihime had gone to Karakura town after Lord and Lady Yamamoto made her the offer for them to adopt her to have her soul removed for from her body. Nobody knew this but her growth rate was even more monstrous than Ichigo's. When she went Karakura Town Head Captain Yamamoto, his wife and her new big sister took a day off to come along. They had brought a blank Asauchi with them which Retsu was holding. When they got there Kisuke already the device to enable the transferal of shinigami powers in case it was ever needed for Ichigo. The device itself was really a sword that was capable of containing and transferring vast amounts of reiatsu and reiryoku to an individual all it really needed was the energy required. They all got down to Kisuke's training room and were amazed at what they saw the sword was already there waiting from glowing with power mostly because Ichigo had left the soul society briefly to donate some of his own.
"The swords been waiting for you come Lord and Lady Yamamoto and Captain Unohana please add your power to the sword so we can get your new daughter back home." Kisuke said. They all charged the sword with there power after which it was handed to Retsu.
"How did you know, and why was the sword already brimming with power when we got here?" Unohana asked. "For future reference I go by Retsu Yamamoto when not in the presence of my squad." she said.
"Forgive me Retsu I was unaware. To answer your question your future husband came by last night and gave a small portion of his power to the sword to give Orihime-chan's dormant shinigami powers a boost. Now Orihime-Chan the process will be fairly simple. I will remove your soul from your body and cut your soul chain, then Retsu will thrust that blade in her hand into your heart after that you will remain here and start communing with your sword while I turn your human body into a gigai " Kisuke said.
As soon as she was ready Kisuke began. He cut her soul chain leaving enough so that it could be repaired if this didn't work, and then Retsu thrust the sword into Orihime's heart. There was a blinding flash of light and when the light faded there Orihime stood with a faint orange glow in the standard shihakusho with orange lily's going down the hakama and pick colored one's on the kosode, the obi was also pink and orange. After a few seconds she collapsed. Kisuke went to make sure she was okay but as soon as he touched her he was shocked.
"What happened Kisuke." the head captain asked
"She's in her inner world talking with her zanpaktou, apparently her zanpaktou doesn't want any interruptions." He replied
Orihime's Inner World
"Hello is anyone there?" Orihime asked but got no reply.
"Where am I?" she thought to herself.
"ORIHIME-CHAN!" A voice yelled tackle ling her to the ground.
"Who are you?" Orihime asked.
"I'm your zanpaktou silly." the woman said.
"When you had your dormant Soul Reaper powers awakened so to was I awakened and when that happened your shun shun rika couldn't stay with you any longer so they decided to fuse themselves with me and in doing so they gave all of their abilities to me. I also took on the likeness of your friend Lily so you wouldn't be frightened when we met. Sorry this place looks so blah right now, but in order for you to see your true inner world you must pass the test for your shikai." the woman said.
"Okay, well what do I have to do?" Orihime asked.
"Simple all you need to do is tell me the answer to a simple question. However, before you do there is a couple of things I wish to say. First I have been watching you from the very beginning and I am very proud of you in spite of all the hardships you've gone through you never lost sight of what was truly important. Second, despite the fact that you have to share him, that boy you're marrying is hot." the woman told her. Orihime blushed and said "I know."
"Now your shikai test fairly straight forward. You must tell me what our favorite colors are." she said.
"That's it!" Orihime exclaimed "That's it." her zanpaktou said.
"Well Ichigo always said that a zanpaktou was the truest representation of the wielders heart and soul, so I'm going to say pink and orange." Orihime said.
"Why orange and pink?" the woman asked.
"Because they're my favorite colors and you're a representation of my heart and soul." Orihime said as woman looked at her beaming with pride. "Correct." she said.
"Okay Hime-chan I'm going to show you the correct way to release me and then give you the release command and my name. When you release me hold me like this." she showed Orihime as she turned slightly to the left and twirled her blade in her hand and bringing the hilt up to the left side of her face, then she stabbed Orihime in the chest. "Hime-chan listen to me I know this is uncomfortable but it is necessary so focus on me and the pain will go away." she said. Orihime did as she was told and sure enough the pain did go away. "Good Hime-chan now I am a very rare type of zanpaktou, I'm a field combat type. What that means is that I can change the battlefield to suit the needs of my wielder it also means that any damage done to my wielder is negated and redirected toward our enemy by a factor of 10 times. I am also the only zanpaktou in all of soul society that has the potential to match your fiances Zangetsu in open combat, but you won't get to that level of power until you master my bankai which will be difficult because my bankai is one of the most destructive in soul society history. What I'm doing right now though is giving you the knowledge on my shikai so you can master it first. My release command is 'Reject Reality' my name is Kyozetsu Hime. (AN: Rejection Princess) I am also one of three sisters to Kisuke Urahara's Benihime, Ichigo's sisters have the other two. We are done but when you go back to your world touch the asauchi they brought with them and my physical form will be forged and remember to train with me using jinzen everyday" she said pulling her blade from Orihime's chest and giving her a hug.
"How do you know Yuzu-chan and Karin-chan have your sisters?" Orihime asked. "Because I can feel their presence in those two cute little girls." her zanpaktou told her.
Back in the Present
The sun came shining into Ichigo's bedroom window and Soifon and Yoruichi couldn't resist playing a prank on Ichigo. They both got out of bed and Yoruichi got into her cat form while Soifon got the camera. Yoruichi sat on his face and made the piece sign with her paw and stuck her tongue between what would've been her fingers just as Soifon took the picture. Yoruichi also went and stuck her tongue in Ichigo's ear which got the desired reaction.
"What the hell, Yoruichi! Why the hell did you stick you tongue in my ear!?" Ichigo exclaimed.
"Well you weren't waking up so I had to try something." Yoruichi said with an evil grin. She really did get a kick out of teasing Ichigo though she would never tell him this. Just as Ichigo got up to get a shower soifon walked over and showed Yoruichi the picture she took Yoruichi grinned and said "oh I'm gonna get a lot of mileage out of this one."
"Come on Ichigo we need to get breakfast and make our way to the captains meeting." Soifon said.
Head Captain Yamamoto came to breakfast as did his wife so they could see Orihime and everyone else.
"Orihime last night you said had a surprise for us, are you gonna tell us or just sit there." Ichigo asked
"Better than that I'll show you." She said sitting there beaming with pride.
Orihime got up walked a few feet, drew her zanpaktou and said "Reject Reality, Kyozetsu Hime!" The blade had an orange and pink hilt the blade was long orange and pink just like the hilt, orange on the top half and spine with a secondary cutting edge which started at the mid point with six sharp points on the cutting edge ending with an inward curve towards the tip and pink on the bottom half with a silver butterfly guard that had sharp serrated edges to the wings. (AN: Think Ichigo's Bankai during the Full bringer Arc only more nasty looking not something you'd want to run into in a dark alley.)
Everyone was shocked, she had only just received her zanpaktou a couple of weeks ago and was already able to release her shikai. Her mother, father, and big sister were very pleased.
Retsu ran up and gave her a hug and said "I'm very proud of you, you're already releasing shikai and only after two weeks that's practically unheard of."
"Indeed." The Head Captain said. "What can she do?" he asked
"She can reject reality within an area of 250 feet around me and any attacks on my person by the enemy regardless of distance are negated and dealt to my enemy instead by a factor of ten. I also retain access to my original powers due to them fusing with my zanpaktou, I need only say the name of the technique in conjunction with the name of my zanpaktou to use them." Orihime answered.
"Very good young lady. I'm very proud of you." The Head Captain said as he gave Orihime a warm embrace.
"However one of my former abilities has changed to suit my new powers as a shinigami." Orihime said.
"Okay, which one?" Ayame asked very enthusiastically.
"Tsubake. Tsubake was my only flower capable of a direct attack but since you donated your reiryoku to awaken my shinigami powers Tsubaki changed into an ability called 'Mugen no Yari' using the power of the technique Kyozetsu Hime can extend at lightning fast speeds and impale my enemy from almost 300 yards out before they have time to so much as blink, kinda like Gin Ichimaru's zanpaktou only much faster. It is called Mugen no Yari or Infinity Spear because regardless of my own power the speed of the technique remains constant." she said.
Once she sealed Kyozetsu Hime and sat back down everyone was stunned they didn't expect her to have such a powerful zanpaktou with such a powerful abilities this soon they expected it to take at least a year for her to release her shikai but were very proud of her as evidenced when her new mother and big sister ran up and gave her a hug with big grins on their faces, even Ichigo gave her a hug and a kiss and told her he was very proud of her for her accomplishment followed by his own goofy grin.
"Orihime I can tell you why Tsubake changed." Ichigo said. "Why" she asked. "It's because I had already visited Urahara store to donate a little of my own reiryoku before hand and when I did I channeled shinso while I was doing it. Shinso and I felt that we wanted you to be safe so we set it up so that my energy would focus on Tsubake to give him the ability he has now the hogyoku and I also setup one or two other surprises for you that you will become aware of the closer you get to mastering Kyozetsu Hime." Ichigo said.
Captains Meeting
"So Ichigo mind telling us why you have being inside of you that looks like the Quincy king Yhwach." Captain Kyoraku said.
"Certainly." Ichigo replied. "Six years ago my mother and I were walking home from the Dojo were I was learning Karate and I saw a little girl about to jump in the river. Like the good little boy my mother raised me to be, I ran over in an attempt to help her and after that everything went dark. I woke up a short time later in a pool of blood with my mothers mutilated corpse on top of me. What does this have to do with your question you ask, well my father as all of you are aware is a pure blooded soul reaper, and my mother was a pure blooded Quincy and as Yhwach was the creator of the Quincy a piece of him is within all of them pure blood or not." Ichigo said. "My mother is also how I gained my hollow powers as well." he further elaborated.
"How is that possible?" Captain Hitsugiya asked.
"You can thank Aizen for that one." Ichigo spat venomously.
"In what way?" Kensei asked.
"Eighteen years ago Aizen created an artificial vasto lord class hollow called "White" using a shinigami soul as the base and sent it to the human world were it started killing soul reapers and my father Isshin Shiba went to investigate without permission and ended up getting his ass kicked. Eventually the hollow attacked my mother and she defeated it with an arrow through the head. Three days after the attack my dad went back to Karakura town again without permission and found that my mother's soul had been infiltrated by the hollow and she was on her way to a soul suicide Kisuke found a way to suppress the hollow but it meant my father would have to use his powers to suppress the hollow inside my mother of course he agreed without hesitation and from then on my fathers days as a soul reaper where over that is until now the rest you already know." Ichigo said.
"Head Captain I demand to have Kurosaki as a research specimen." Kurosuchi said.
"No!" the head captain exclaimed. "Well I'll just have to take his sisters I'm sure they'll be just as good." the deranged captain of squad 12 said.
This statement got a rise out Ichigo and Rangiku who both flashed over to Kurosuchi and said if he ever touched Yuzu and Karin or so much as looked at them cross-eyed that they would kill him.
"Head Captain I believe that the worm behind me will miss her wedding permanently if she doesn't let go of me." Just as Kurosuchi said this Ichigo's reiatsu began to rise.
Ichigo looked at Kurosuchi, grabbed him be the throat and said "Tell me Kurosuchi since you enjoy dissecting things, how about you assist me with a dissection of my own and at the same time I'll get to show you what your brain really looks like up close. Rangiku is going to marry my father as such I already consider her family and anyone that harms those I care about regardless of who they are will die." as he placed the tip of Shinso underneath Kurosuchi's chin.
"Ichigo." the head captain said trying to release the tension in the room.
"Yes, Sir." Ichigo replied. "You don't have to address me like that you know." Yamamoto said.
Ichigo grinned and said. "As you are not only the head captain of the 13 court guard squads but my elder and someone whom I greatly admire and respect even though I didn't always act like I will address you properly, however I will address you informally in private if that is okay with you." he stated.
"Very well." Yamamoto stated as he nodded with a smile.
Ichigo turned to Kurosuchi and said "Since that part of my conversation is over I will warn once Kurosuchi and once only. My sisters and the rest of my family are in the noble plain, if you or anyone from your squad sets foot in the noble plain with out my permission or comes with in 500 yards of the Shiba Clan compound or any member of my family I will send you and them back to that shit hole you call a squad in pieces." Ichigo and Rangiku let go of Kurosuchi only for Ichigo to raise his reiatsu and starfish Captain Ass Clown to the ground just to get the point across.
"So Ichigo how far along are you in your training." Captain Ukitake asked.
"I've mastered both styles of Hakuda and Hoho as well as all assassination techniques. I have also mastered Zanjitsu and achieved masterful control of my reiryoku with the help of Soifon, Yoruichi, and Unohana the only things left are kido and kaido." Ichigo said.
"You forgot to mention your zanpaktou and the hogyoku." Captain Komamura said.
"That's done to, I reforged Zangetsu, and forged Kyoka Suigetsu, and Shinso to suit me and my abilities and mastered there powers. I also mastered the powers of the Hogyoku all in the last two weeks. As far as Zangetsu is concerned, my inner hollow merged with my shinigami powers while I was in my mothers womb and became Zangetsu but since the reforging using an asauchi my inner hollow, my shinigami powers, and my inner Quincy became Zangetsu." Ichigo said.
This earned shocked gasps from everyone in the room except his trainers who just happened to be three of his future wives. "How is that possible?" Capt. Hitsugiya asked. "You mean you've only mastered shikai right.?"
"It is possible because when I reforged Zangetsu I merged all powers my together, and my other zanpaktou can also tap into my Quincy powers to aid me in combat. No, Capt. Hitsugiya I am not just referring to mastering my shikai I have also mastered the bankai of my zanpaktou." Ichigo said.
"Looks like he beat your record for the second time Hitsugiya-kun." Captain Kyoraku said.
"Oh and something else, Shinso's Bankai 'Kami Shini no Yari' does something far different than what Gin told it did but I won't discuss it in front of Captain Ass Clown here." Ichigo said as he pointed to Kurosuchi. Which got quite a few laughs around the room, and an evil glare from Kurosuchi.
"Then given this new information I see no reason to hold off on my decision any longer; Ichigo Kurosaki Shiba for your services to the Soul Society, your defeat of Aizen Souske, and since you are now head of the Shiba Clan I would like to offer you a position of Captain within the guard squads." The head captain said.
"What position would I be taking as all current positions are filled?" Ichigo asked.
"I have formed a new squad, from this day forth we shall be known as the 14 Court Guard Squads and you shall be the Captain of this new squad." Yamamoto said.
"I object to this!" Kurosuchi exclaimed. But before any one could shut him up Byakuya fired a low powered byakurai into Kurosuchi's knee and promptly told him to shut up.
"What would be the duties of this new squad?" Ichigo asked
"The new squad would comprise a new Covert Ops Unit called the S.O.F. or Soul Society Special Operations Force and the duties of the squad would be similar to squad two's but would focus primarily in the gathering of intelligence as well as perform recon, but your primary responsibility would be to act as our last line of defense against threats like Aizen so all members would have to be captain class or pretty close." Yamamoto said as he noticed Ichigo's evil grin.
"Very well Head Capt. Yamamoto I accept however, I am sure you realize that Orihime and I will be spending a good deal of our time in the world of the living until we graduate high school." Ichigo stated as he was given his haori.
"I do and there have already been allowances made for that." Yamamoto said. "Is there anything I will need to do in the mean time?" Ichigo asked.
"Aside from finding officers to fill the squad no everything is already set up even your barracks are already built." Good Ichigo Stated. "I would however ask that after the meeting is over that you and Captains Hitsugiya, Kuchiki, Kyoraku, Unohana, Soifon, Ukitake and Lieutenant's Abarai, Kuchiki, Nanao and Matsumoto remain behind for there is something else that must be discussed in private." Ichigo said.
The head captain nodded his head in agreement and said "Then this meeting is now adjourned you are all dismissed."
"Okay Ichigo we're alone." Yoruichi stated. "What did you what to discuss?"
"Head Captain Yamamoto could you seal this room and put up a sound proof barrier?" Ichigo asked.
This request got a lot of looks but Yamamoto complied with out saying a word.
"Okay to start with it has come to my attention that we have another traitor in our ranks, but unlike Aizen this person didn't come out in the open, this person has done so from the shadows for over 100 years by betraying the very principles upon which 14 Court Guard Squads was founded and in doing so they bring shame and dishonor to not only the Yamamoto Clan but the Shiba, Shihoin, Fon, Kuchiki, and Kasumioji Clans also, as well as all the shinigami who serve the Soul Society with honor and distinction." Ichigo said.
This statement got everyone in the room very upset.
"Who is it Ichigo?" Yoruichi asked. "Mayuri Kurosuchi." Ichigo said.
"Wait how could he be a traitor?" Kyoraku asked. "He Has done nothing but help us." Ukitake said.
"Help us openly yes, but it's what he has done covertly that makes him a traitor." Ichigo said.
"What has he done?" Retsu asked as she stood next to her fiance and entwined her arm with his.
"Do you remember when I invaded the Soul Society shortly before Aizen revealed himself as a traitor?" He asked as everyone nodded.
"Well after everything was over with my friend Uryu pulled me aside and told me that Kurosuchi is responsible for the deaths of over 2,600 Quincy by bringing them here illegally and using them as lab rats for experimentation, Uryu even showed me this picture of our grandfather Soken Ishida which was the last Quincy that Kurosuchi experimented on." Ichigo said as they all looked at the picture and were visibly ill from looking at it.
"But that isn't all, he also used soul reapers in his experiments and even used them as living bombs during the invasion as Uryu saw him blow them up just so he could get his hands on Orihime and do the same to her. This brings his body count to well over 4,000 individuals." Ichigo said. This statement got Yamamoto very angry, but not at what he tried to do then, but what he could be planning in the future.
"Captain Soifon you will arrest Captain Kurosuchi at once!" Yamamoto Ordered.
"Wait, I know you want him out of here just as much as I do; but this isn't the way to go about this." Ichigo said. "We need hard irrefutable evidence that he can't explain away."
"What would you suggest Ichigo-Kun?" Kyoraku said.
"Simple you guys made me Captain of Squad 14, I think it's time I use the authority of my new position don't you?" He asked with an evil grin. "Meet me at Shiba Clan Manor at 7:30 pm for dinner tonight and we'll discuss it then. However, for now I need Soifon and Yoruichi to go back to Karakura Town Get Kisuke and the other visored's and take them straight to Shiba Manor and make sure they all keep quiet about this. I also want him to bring enough materials to make reiatsu and reiryoku suppressing cloaks for everyone involved in the investigation, I don't want Kurosuchi getting wind of this until its to late for him to do anything about it. I also want you to tell him to bring any equipment needed to scan the bodies of those involved for foreign substances and the means to get rid of them if found, inform him of everything that was said here. As of right now the name of this operation is 'FLYCATCHER' it is classified above top-secret and no one outside this room or the ones specified will be read in on this. As far as everyone else is concerned this operation doesn't even exist understand. Retsu I need you to go get Shinji, Rose, Kensei, and Mashiro take them back to the manor tell them they are invited for dinner and that I want to speak to them but nothing else." Ichigo said. Everyone nodded in the affirmative. "Alright Soifon, Yoruichi go quickly we don't have a lot of time to get the ball rolling on this." They nodded and disappeared heading straight for Karakura town.
When they arrived they carried out there mission, informing Kisuke, and the visored's of everything that was said and inviting them all back to Shiba Manor in the Noble Plain for dinner at 7:30 which they all gladly accepted. Little did everyone know that their was a surprise waiting for them back at Shiba Manor that no one was expecting. Ichigo was walking to the manor with his soon to be step-mother, but when they got to the gate they saw a large cylindrical object at the back of the manor that Ichigo didn't recognize. "What's that?" he asked. The guards at the front gate said "that is the Tenchuren, the carriage of the Soul King, and he is here to see you Ichigo." Ichigo and Matsumoto's eye's went wide for a few moments and they raced off to see what was wrong. He and Matsumoto ran into the main meeting area panicked and asked "what's wrong?" only for Ichigo to be not only greeted warmly by the Soul King Himself but also thanked for his service to not only the Soul Society but him as well by offering his hand in thanks which Ichigo immediately shook it.
"Think nothing of it sir I just did right thing and protected those that I cared about thanks are not needed." Ichigo said. The Soul King smiled and said "Even so I wanted to thank the son of Masaki Kurosaki and to bring him a gift and please call me Hideaki." He told Ichigo. "Very well Hideaki, if I may ask what is the purpose of your visit?" Ichigo asked. "I just came by to drop someone off that was just dying to see her little protector." Hideaki said. "How do you know that phrase only my mother called me that and she's been gone for six years!" Ichigo exclaimed.
"She was but I kinda sorta brought her back along with a few others, and do not worry Ms. Matsumoto you will still marry Isshin only now the two of you will share him." Hideaki said.
"Where is she?" Ichigo asked understandably shaken by this new revelation. "Your mother, father and sisters are in the dining room." Hideaki told him. Ichigo rushed off only looking back to bow. "Do not worry Ichigo I will be staying since your grandparents invited me and the royal guard to dinner this evening." He told Ichigo. Ichigo and Matsumoto ran to the dining room and where shocked by what they saw, his mother sitting at the dining room but he also saw members of the Ishida family. "Mom." Ichigo said in a shaky voice.
Masaki just turned around and gave him a smile he hadn't seen in years, after that he couldn't take it anymore he just ran to her and gave her a hug dropping to the ground still in her arms crying like a little boy. "There's my little protector my dear sweet little boy oh how I've missed you." Masaki said. "I've missed you too mom, you don't know what it was like for dad, Karin, Yuzu, and I these past six years we all missed you so much." Ichigo said deepening the embrace. "I know Ichigo and I feel the same about all of you." she said. "You are Rangiku Matsumoto are you not?" she asked as she separated herself from Ichigo. "I am." Rangiku replied. "Welcome to the family." Masaki said giving Rangiku a warm embrace. "Thank you." Rangiku replied.
"Ichigo have you met your uncle Ryuken and your cousin Uryu yet?" Masaki asked. "I have we fought against Aizen together." He said.
"Good then you need to meet four other people." Masaki said.
"These first three are also members of our family, may I present Souken and Sachi Ishida your and Uryu's grandparents and this is Kanae Katagiri Ishida Uryu's mother. The last person isn't related to us but she is related to one of the women you're marrying, this is Hisana Kuchiki older sister of Rukia and the wife of Byakuya." Masaki said.
"Mom how is any of this possible, not that I'm complaining but technically none of you should be here at least not yet?" Ichigo asked.
"That Ichigo is something that the Soul King should explain which he will do at dinner." Masaki said. "It is an honor to meet all of you and welcome home." Ichigo said. "Hisana, Rukia and Byakuya are going to have a kitten when they see you they will be here tonight so I would prepare yourself." he said. "Thank you Ichigo I will." Hisana said.
"Oh crap! I forgot to make arrangements for dinner we are having more guests for dinner this evening." Ichigo said.
"Relax Ichigo the arrangements have already been made and everything's been taken care of." his grandmother said from behind him. "The Soul King is aware that you are planning an operation to get rid of Kurosuchi and he and the Royal Guard would like to sit in on the briefing after dinner this evening." Akari said. "Breathing deeply he said "That's a relief, now if you will excuse me I've got wait for our guests to arrive from Karakura and brief them on the situation." He said.
To be Continued….
Okay that is it for chapter six the investigation against will take awhile so there will probably be time skips. Read & Review but flames will be ignored. The next chapter will not be as long as this one but I will do my best to make it long enough.
